Obama dealt with them because he didn't need to.
Unlike all the things he didn't attend to that he needed to like governing the country.
Are we talking the same Obama here?
The guy who did more for America in a single year, despite constant Republican stonewalling, than the orange moron did in four years?

On the off chance that there are other St. Louis-area veterans: You can get the vax from the VA now. Call JC or JB or one of the CBOCs for more information.

Global South countries have been fighting for the right to manufacture and import affordable versions of the covid vaccines. And now, the USA, UK and European Union joined forces to block them at the WTO.
Quote:WTO Fails To Reach Deal On COVID IP Waiver Proposal, Again
the World Trade Organization stayed the course Thursday and failed, again, to reach an agreement on a proposal to temporarily waive any intellectual property rights for vaccines and treatments related to COVID-19.
"The US Chamber of Commerce warned the WTO's director-general not to 'distract' herself with proposals to suspend intellectual property rules in order to distribute COVID-19 vaccines around the world.
Katie Gallogly-Swan, a policy coordinator for a joint project between the Global Development Policy Center and the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, said in a statement to Law360. "It is time to accept that we are not on track to vaccinate the world."
She estimated that "allowing such vaccine inequality to persist" would cost the global economy over $9 trillion.
"It is unconscionable that amid a global health crisis, huge multibillion dollar pharmaceutical companies continue to prioritize profits by protecting their monopolies and driving up prices rather than prioritizing the lives of people everywhere, including the Global South," Bernie Sanders said in a statement on Twitter.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
